fore, be impugned. Nothing Is said here
but what is daily on the lips of all who
have watched the progress of the league
contest. If this talk is without founda-
ton in fact, there is yet time to disprove
it. Minneapolis now plays with Oshkosh
and then returns home for series with
Dies MoineS, Milwaukee and Oshkosh on
the home grounds, and the result will go
far toward establishing or completely
refuting the charges. / close this with
an extract from the Chicago Tribune,
under Milwaukee date line:
SERIOUS CHARGES
are made against the Oshkosh club by other
organizations in the Northwestern league.
Manager Anderson, of the Duluths, who are
playing here, released Brewster to-day for
alleged crooked work in the pitchers box. 1t
is charged against Brewster that when the
Duluths were in Oshkosh recently he was
directors of the Oshkosh club, and that in the
game where he occupied the box he simply
tossed the ball in. In explanation of the ac-
tiou Manager Anderson said:
1.-The Oshkosh PLAYERS and others had Brew
ster out all the time with them, and also tried
To get Brynan drunk, so that he would be un-
able to play on the following day, but Brynan
was proof against temptation, while Brew
Ster was not, so released Brewster tonight.
The Oshkosh players and directors did every
thing but offer money to Brynan to throw
the game, but the more they talked the mad
der he became. Secretary Chase approached
me before Wednesdays game and said they
wanted to win and for us to assist them, but
l told him was in the base ball business to
please the public and not TO throw games,
and that his club would have to play ball to
win. Before Wednesdays game Manager
Selee, of the Oshkosh club positively refused
to allow one of his seventeen players to UNI
pire the game, but insisted on Freddy Felker
taking the position. i demurred. but my
kick was without avail. AS result, Felker
gave the game to Oshkosh, and We hadn't
the ghost of a show to win it. Oshkosh is
bound to get the pennant by all kinds of
tricks and even sends the Eau Claire players
presents, boxes of cigars, etc.. whenever
they win games from Milwaukee or lose to
Oshkosh. and the Eau Claire players tell
about it everywhere and consider it a great
snap. The actions of the Oshkosh directors
have been very reprehensible, TO say the
least, and they should meet their just de-
serts. When they come TO Duluth to com
plete the season they will have to play ball to
win, and will find regular league umpire
there to take charge of affairs. am dis
guSted with Oshkosh, and so are all the other
managers, HELOT.

NATIONAL LEAGUE.
The Michigan Team Leading
Easily Without Excitement.

Detroit goes right along defeating
every club that comes along with the ut
most ease. The Michigan aggregation
has fallen back on its old standbys,
Baldwin and Getzein, and it finds them
amply able to down the best of them.
This week they will test the mettle of
New York with Keefe and Welch in the
box, and it is predicted that the Wolyer-
ines will win two out of three games.
Chicago beat Philadelphia three times
during the week, but had poor success
with the Giants, winning one, tying one
and losing one. AT the end of this week
the Eastern clubs will go home to play
with one another, while Detroit and
Chicago will end the season with pic
mic with Pittsburg and indianapolis.
Chicago, Philadelphia, New York and
Boston are in position to change
places considerably in the next two OF
three weeks, but the probabilities are
that they will wind up the base ball
year exactly as now placed. The record

After shaking hands and bidding Mr..
Snider gOod-day we left him as we found
him, still tramping about his beaten
pdIu. WHeu nearly OUT OF SipuI we
looked again; he was still at his task
alone, head erect, the same swinging
step, in circle from right to left. On
he went, as cOntented and serene as
though sitting in the shade conversing
with friends. We calculate that now he
has been walking over 1000 days, 20
hours of every "a.
AT the rate of 4 miles an hour, so

years, and yet his journey is not ended.
In conversation with the family
about Mr.. Snider we were informed by
them that he never murmured or com
planned at his lot, was always pleasant
and cheerful, and that often he would
walk for an hour at time, supported by
some member of the family, sound
asleep, snoring so loudly as to be heard
several rods away; that in sleeping he
sat in the arm chair near the circle, and
while sleeping sat erect, breathed cas-
lily. and on waking at once began his
task.

effort at command had been reSOrted to
to get him to forego his tramp, yet,

Something About the WATERFOWL
Base Ball Club.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe
WATERFOWL, OAK, Sept. 1s.-The
Watertown base ball club has finished
the season by winning the champion
ship of Dakota for 1887, in series of
games with the Fargo ball team, cham
pions of North Dakota. A series of five
games was played, of which WATERFOWL
won three. The two games lost to the
FargOS were the first and only games
which the club has lost on the home
grounds or on any grounds in South
Dakota. 1t has won every game played
with South Dakota, Southwestern Min
nesOta and Northwestern Iowa clubs.
The nine have made a record of hard
hitting that is seldom, if ever, eXcelled.
In forty games played it won thirty
four, and averaged twenty base hits
and fraction to each game. The nine
is composed of the following players in
the positions Indicated:
d. mckinley, pitcher and first base.
Q. Richter, catcher and shortstop.
Ward Williams, first base.
F. Mccarthy, second base.
James Cantillion, third base and captain.
Grant, ShortStop.
c. Yetter, left fielder.
q. H1mnan, center fielder.
Evan, right fielder.
Lemar, catcher and second base.
No small credit is due James Cantil-
lion for his untiring efforts in the field
and in coaching his men. W. o.
Fraser was manager of the team, and
has won the esteem of all the players
by his love of fair play and honorable
treatment of them. Next year there
will be Dakota league formed. and
WatertOwn intends to strain every nerve
if necessary to get to the front again in
the championship business as in every
thing else she undertakes.

MILWAUKEE, Sept. 1S.-While Mil

to-day, the players from Minneapolis

Shaw and Murray played in anything

from the box at the end of the sixth in

and Shenkel finished the game. While
in the box the st. Louis man evidently
suffered from his arm and had poor con-
troll, sending five men to first base on
balls and hitting three men with pitched
balls. His curves proved deceptive, but
three hits being secured off his delivery.
The fielding of the Milwaukees was
phenomenally good, and Sylvester once
more distinguished himself by splendid
work in center field. The score follows:

THEY MEAN BUSINESS.
The Base Ball Brotherhood In
SiStS on RecOenitiOn.

sistS on Recognition.
PITTsBURG, Sept. 1S.-In all interview
with Post reporter tonight John
Ward, of the New York Base Ball club
and president of the Brotherhood of
the National league ball players, stated
that President Young and his colleagues
had so far refused to recognize the
Brotherhood. They were willing to
confer with a committee of league
players. but not delegation from any
brotherhood. IF this resolve is per-
sisted in," said he, ''there will be
trouble. The brotherhood has come to
stay and not one of us Will sign con-
tract until delegation from our Organi-
Zation conferS with the representatives
of the National league. They must
recognize us as an organization. Presi-
dent Young and others look upon us as
something weak, but they viii find out
their mistake if conflict takes place."
''lf the league steadfastly refuses to
recognize your brotherhood and none of
you sign, will another organization be
formed?'
Mr.. Ward smiled as he replied: II
am not at liberty to say what we will
do. Let me say, however, that there is
plenty of money at our disposal to
organize an association or league. We
know of any amount of capitalists who
want to invest their money in base ball.
l will go further, and say that we will
be recognized as an organization, and
we will all play next year, whether they
like it or nOt.'
In regard to the sudden reinstatement
of RadbOurne by the Boston manage
ment, Ward said that if the broth er-
hood had not existed RAD might now
have been without work and without
salary. He stated, further, that the
union meant to respect the reserve rule,
but wOul d not tolerate a system by
which an honest player can be cast aside
for weeks without pay simply because
he is not playing as we'll as the club
directors would like to see him.

AMERICAN ASSOCIATION.
A Pretty Contest Going on for
Second Place,

The American association teams have
an average of twenty-five games yet to
play. The st. Louis Browns have
nineteen. of which they must win ten
to get their 100 games. The present
outlook is that they will win easily.
Cincinnati retains second place, but
Louisville persists in remaining uncom-
fortably close. Baltimore is probably
far enough behind not to be dangerous.
The contest between Athletic and
Brooklyn for fifth place is still pretty
one. The former is doing the best play
ing at present and will probably win It.
The record follows:
